Abstract
Landslides are land movements caused by both natural and human-induced factors. Natural factors are influenced by the area^s geological structure, rock type, slope gradient, and rainfall intensity, while human-induced factors are dynamic, such as land use and infrastructure development. Remote sensing techniques using satellite imagery can be applied to map landslide-prone areas. Satellite images are recordings of the earth^s surface of multiple bands with specific wavelengths. These bands are composited to enhance object visibility, simplifying land cover classification. In the case of Gumelar District, Banyumas Regency, the zoning of landslide-prone areas is mapped using a weighting and scoring method. The parameters influencing landslides, including geological structure, rock type, rainfall, slope, infrastructure, and land cover derived from satellite imagery, are weighted and scored. The results indicate that the landslide potential in Gumelar District is predominantly in the moderate to high category. Landslide-prone area mapping is crucial as a mitigation measure to minimize the impact of landslides.
